The Bastille was a symbol of oppression of the monarchy; it was a political prison. Persons could be arrested and detained there without charges on the request of an aristocrat. It was in a terrible state and almost in a state of abandon by the time of the Revolution. When the mob tore it down, stone by stone, there were only a few persons locked up there, one of whom was virtually homeless and depended upon the prison as a shelter and a safe place to be. I lived in Paris, and these are a few details
